1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,759
Speaker 1: Thanks Aaron, Brian, how are you today?

2
00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:03,640
Speaker 2: Fine?

3
00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:08,080
Speaker 1: I was just looking at some of the big plays

4
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:12,520
Speaker 1: allowed by the team over the last two games, I say,

5
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:13,760
Speaker 1: twenty yards or more.

6
00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:16,239
Speaker 2: What do you see in that area, Brian?

7
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 1: And then what do you want to see improve so

8
00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 1: that number comes down?

9
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:29,160
Speaker 3: I mean, of course, every play is you know, pretty

10
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:34,600
Speaker 3: specific where there's you know, there's eleven guys on both

11
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 3: sides of the ball that are doing something and they

12
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 3: can be doing it well, they can be not doing well.

13
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:42,640
Speaker 3: And so there's a lot of factors on every play.

14
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,159
Speaker 3: What play they're running, what defense we're in, you know,

15
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:48,239
Speaker 3: et cetera. So a lot of things lead to why

16
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 3: we give up a big, big play or not. But

17
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 3: you know, obviously there's consistencies of you always want to

18
00:00:55,360 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 3: have good communication and execution of the call and good

19
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 3: fundamentals including you know, tackling coverage, et cetera.

20
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 1: So it's sort of a maybe a loaded question, but

21
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 1: how much do you think those are hurting you?

22
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,399
Speaker 2: Guys?

23
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 3: Big plays always hurt you know, it's about uh, you know,

24
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 3: anytime you give up big plays on defense, that's that's

25
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:27,960
Speaker 3: about the the worst thing that can happen. Now with

26
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,680
Speaker 3: fat We've played a lot of good defense this year,

27
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 3: so that's you know, what I expect going forward. But yeah,

28
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,960
Speaker 3: I mean, if you're you're asking about big plays, if

29
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 3: you're on defense and you give it big plays, that's,

30
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 3: you know, about the worst thing that can happen.

31
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 4: So right, we'll go to Evan Lazar followed by Nicko

32
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 4: Mallley then in Steel. Go ahead, Evan, Hey, Brian, how

33
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 4: you doing.

34
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 2: How's it going good?

35
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 5: I just wanted to ask you about Marte and just

36
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 5: you know, how his development has gone on from your

37
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 5: perspective as a deep safety. I know that's not something

38
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 5: he did a ton in college, so you know, I'm

39
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 5: just curious you know that that has gone and I

40
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 5: know it, you know, looks kind of like he's been

41
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 5: involved in some big plays over the last couple of weeks.

42
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 5: But you know, rookie just you know, trying to learn

43
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 5: the spot.

44
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 3: I assume, Yeah, Marte is a guy where his strength

45
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 3: as a player is probably his versatility to.

46
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 2: Playing the box and of the.

47
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 3: Speed netflixism to play you know, other places on the field.

48
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 2: So you know, he's a guy as a.

49
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 3: Rookie coming from a small school who you want to

50
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 3: get experience throughout the defense and have him understanding the

51
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 3: defense as a whole, so that as he continues to

52
00:02:56,160 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 3: get more and more involved, he really really understands what

53
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 3: he's doing and how he can fit in. And if

54
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 3: he don't doesn't understand the big picture, then he's not

55
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 3: able to move to different spots. So he's done a

56
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 3: great job of that. He's you know, eager in the

57
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 3: classroom to learn multiple spots in the defense and understand

58
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 3: defense as a whole.

59
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,080
Speaker 2: So that's been great.

60
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 3: So you know, he gets He's a guy who you know,

61
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 3: gets better with every rep with the experience he yets.

62
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 3: So yeah, I'm you know, happy with how he's developing

63
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 3: and excited to see you know, his career as it unfolds.

64
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 6: Yeah.

65
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 5: And you know, when you guys drafted him, I know

66
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 5: you might not be completely involved in those types of decisions,

67
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 5: but you know, did you view him as somebody that

68
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 5: you thought was going to be, you know, playing in

69
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 5: the deep part of the field or you know, is

70
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 5: that something that's just kind of developed over the course

71
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 5: of the season just because of you know, team needs

72
00:03:58,520 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 5: or whatever.

73
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I think, like you said, I'm not

74
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 3: you know, involved in the exact selection of players for

75
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 3: the draft, so you know, the exact vision for them

76
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 3: is up to the people who make those decisions. But

77
00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,919
Speaker 3: I think we do a good job of no matter

78
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:27,359
Speaker 3: what we no matter what idea we had for the

79
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 3: player in the draft process, once they get here, you know,

80
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:33,840
Speaker 3: that's the most important thing is seeing what they can

81
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 3: do after they can get here, what they can handle,

82
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 3: how they fit into the defense, whether it's athletically.

83
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 2: In their role or.

84
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 3: You know, how they can handle things mentally. You know, physically,

85
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 3: there's a different there's different standards and things that players

86
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 3: have to deal with in the NFL then in college,

87
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 3: so you have to see how they, you know, match

88
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 3: up against bigger guys or you know, thered schemes that

89
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 3: run at this level and how.

90
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 2: They can fit in.

91
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 3: So I think he's shown the ability to do multiple

92
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 3: things on the field, and so we're trying to develop

93
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 3: him in that way.

94
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 5: Great, Thank you appreciate it.

95
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,840
Speaker 4: Let's take our final two questions from Nicomelley and then

96
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 4: I Steele go ahead and.

97
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 6: Nick Andy Brian, how's it going and Corey excited for

98
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:29,039
Speaker 6: the Frankfurt trip.

99
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:31,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean.

100
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 3: It's it's just amazing to think that he'll be in

101
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,960
Speaker 3: Germany in a couple of days.

102
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 2: Pretty while.

103
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 6: I believe you were on the staff for the Mexico

104
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 6: City trip a few years ago. For players and coaches,

105
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,279
Speaker 6: how much time do you actually get to you know,

106
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,599
Speaker 6: get to be in the city and do things like

107
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 6: are you gonna have time to grab some schnitzel or

108
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:56,839
Speaker 6: a beer while you're over there?

109
00:05:58,800 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 7: Yeah?

110
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 3: It it kind of depends on the schedule, you know,

111
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 3: with the team and how long we're there and stuff.

112
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,919
Speaker 3: So yeah, it would be interesting.

113
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 2: I don't know, we'll see.

114
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,799
Speaker 3: Obviously, there's also the factor of like how jet lags

115
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 3: are you know, tired everyone's going to be, so what

116
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:23,359
Speaker 3: will be feeling up to physically. So obviously, you know,

117
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:27,479
Speaker 3: you don't get any chances to travel internationally, so we'd

118
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 3: love to experience some of the German culture and get

119
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 3: out and see stuff. But we're we're going there with

120
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 3: a job to do, and that's to beat the colts,

121
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 3: So that's where where the primary focus is.

122
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 2: So you know, you're not kind of depends how you

123
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:47,719
Speaker 2: feel out there, right.

124
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:47,840
Speaker 6: You're not.

125
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 2: Kinda if you're super tired jet lags, you're not going

126
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 2: to get out much. Yeah, you know, gotta make sure

127
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 2: you're prepared for the game.

128
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,479
Speaker 4: Thank you, and we'll take our final question from me

129
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:00,840
Speaker 4: and the go ahead in.

130
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 7: Brian. How you doing.

131
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 2: How's it going good? Good?

132
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 7: Going back to Marte and just trying to find that

133
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 7: free safety so to speak, that Devin played for so

134
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 7: many years. You've had Kyle back there, You've had Mills

135
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 7: back there. Just the skill sets of all of these guys. Uh,

136
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 7: how does it fit into what Devin did? And how

137
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 7: are you guys coming along and finding a consistent kind

138
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 7: of one guy or is it going to be kind

139
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 7: of a hodgepodge until someone essentially steps forward?

140
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 2: Yeah? I think.

141
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 3: I love I love Devin and loved working with Devon

142
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 3: and we're lucky to have him for a long time.

143
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 2: But he's not here anymore.

144
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 3: So you know, we're not really looking for Devon or

145
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 3: looking for someone who's going to be Devon, because there's

146
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 3: that person isn't going to exist. He's he's done, unfortunately

147
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 3: for us. So we were lucky to have him for

148
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 3: a long time. But as far as filling that role,

149
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 3: we're you know, the goal is to just play the

150
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 3: best defense we can with the with the guys we

151
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 3: have and thankfully, I'm really comment confident in the group.

152
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 2: We have with what they can do.

153
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 3: And they have a you know, multiple different skill sets

154
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 3: that can help us, you know, in a lot of

155
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 3: different ways, and that's that's a strength for us, and.

156
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 2: You know, something that we can use to our advantage that.

157
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 3: You know, multiple people can do the same role, can

158
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 3: do different roles, and as the season goes, you know,

159
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:55,680
Speaker 3: sometimes rules narrow and sometimes you want to open it

160
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 3: up more and keep it more virsatile. So that's kind

161
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:02,000

00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,720
